San Francisco Giants relief pitcher John Brebbia (elbow) has been activated off the 60-day injured list on Sunday. He has been sidelined since last June after he underwent Tommy John surgery.

Zack Britton Dealing With Soreness

New York Yankees relief pitcher Zack Britton (soreness) was unavailable Sunday due to some general soreness he was feeling.
